Congrats on the win. No matter how modest you are, you know deep down you deserve it

Are you re-using the JWT kit? If not, how much

Thanks guys. I don't think many people beyond my close group of friends knows how much I go really through on this project. I do a lot of work on their myself but the shops I choose to work with should get the credit, everyone that puts their hard work into it do it with pride. I'll have a list of what is in the motor and what it took to make this happen in such a short time frame. I'm amazed at the support I was able to get.

For the awards Saturday night. TWCompetition FTW! Hottest Team Overall and we swept the Best of Show Awards!

Help me understand. TWcompetition is what? a car club or the shop...I always thought your club was R Rides. I am just confused.

I had read somewhere that R Rides became RareJDM then I see TWcompetition.
